| Our European agent, Luc Klinkhammer, along with fellow plantsman, Gary Van Buren, great-great grandson of our eighth president, Martin Van Buren, found this plant growing in a Dutch field, for the cut flower trade. Its remarkable flowers open as singles, slowly developing a large pompom of fringed, rose pink center petals. Growing 30” tall, it blooms July through August, handling a wide range of growing conditions, with heat and drought tolerance. The flowers look stunning in arrangements and may last up to two weeks, once cut! Propagation is prohibited.

|
| Our native purple coneflower now sports showy, variegated foliage! The dark green leaves have an undulating, creamy white margin. Enormous, rose-pink, daisy-like flowers with fat center cones bloom in midsummer and continue the rest of the season on 30-36” stems. These plants are tough and handle both summer’s heat and winter’s cold exceptionally well, otherwise they wouldn’t have survived and prospered in our fluky climate for eons. It looks great with Eupatorium rugosum ‘Chocolate’. Propagation is prohibited.

| Echinacea p. ‘Sparkler’ is an eye-riveting sport of E. purpurea ‘Ruby Giant’. It forms a compact mound of foliage, which is brightly speckled white from when the leaves emerge in spring until very hot weather arrives in summer, at which time the leaves turn greener. Each clump is topped with numerous 24-30” stems bearing 4” wide, fragrant, pink daisies in July and August. An excellent cut flower! Combines well with Liatris and Filipendula. Propagation is prohibited.

| A new color for our native coneflower! The soft, citron-yellow, fragrant daisy-like flowers are up to 5 inches across, with the central cone of the flower starting out green and quickly giving way to gold.

As resilient and easy to grow as any coneflower, withstanding heat and drought well. Perfect in combination with other natives like Liatris and grasses like Panicum and Schizachrium.
